This is a pronunciation game focusing on sentence stress patterns. In particular, it aims to raise awareness that pronouns and possessives are not normally stressed. If your students stress them my mistake, the listener will look for a contrastive meaning. There is also a follow up oral drill with audio featuring a poem from English Pronunciation in Use 2nd ed (CUP 2012).
